Kaboom and InterActing collaborate on 'Meet the Voices', an event where Dutch voice actors will perform their characters live.

Delve into an enchanting yet unseen realm of animation film: the world of voice-acting. So picture this: Dutch voice actors leaving their dark studios, stepping into the light, just to perform live in front of an audience. And mind you, these thespians are the best of the best! Something known by their most ardent admirers: the students of InterActing, Boom Chicago's theatre haven for teenagers with autism. InterActing stands as a transformative force, utilising improvisation skills to liberate these youngsters from the confines of their patterns of ritual and routine.

Now, for the fourth year running, brace yourselves as Kaboom and InterActing concoct a riotous programme performed at Boom Chicago's theatre on the Rozengracht. Dutch voice actors will boldly step behind their mics, ready to entertain live. A rare opportunity to meet the voices.

Some of the animated characters you’ll encounter include those from Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Furious Five, Sonic, Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Masters, and Spongebob SquarePants. These beloved characters are brought to life by talented Dutch voice actors such as Marcel Jonker, Franky Rampen, Anneke Beukman, Jannemien Cnossen, and Wiebe Pier Cnossen. ⁠

This program screened as part of Kaboom Animation Festival 2025
